Chapter 279: Your Miss is Talented and Capable

Since Ning Shu was now Qi Sheng’s personal maid, she brewed tea, then carried it to Qi Sheng’s study. After pushing open the door and walking in, she saw that Qi Sheng was currently in the middle of work. Since he was the successor to his family business, he really was quite busy.

However, he could still find time to go flirt with Mu Yanmeng and, once his childhood sweetheart arrived, also flirt with his true love. In the original storyline, he didn’t seem busy at all.

Ning Shu placed the teacup next to Qi Sheng’s hand. Qi Sheng glanced at the cup, then looked towards Ning Shu. Ning Shu immediately opened her mouth wide in a bloody grin as she said, “Young Master, please have some tea.”

“Could it be that no one has told you I only drink tea that has cooled to a lukewarm temperature?” said Qi Sheng mildly.

“Sorry, this servant hadn’t heard. This servant will rebrew the pot,” said Ning Shu with a shamed expression as she hastily moved to pick up the teacup. However, she moved clumsily and ended up knocking the cup over and spilling the scalding water on Qi Sheng’s hand.

Freshly boiled tea water was spilled onto his hand just like that.

“What are you doing!?” Qi Sheng’s brows furrowed with pain. His hand instantly turned red.

Ning Shu’s expression filled with panic and she took out her handkerchief to wipe his hand. The moment she pulled that handkerchief out, Qi Sheng smelled the disgusting mixture of perfume and stinky socks.

He retched and hastily covered his nose with his hand, but he had reacted with the hand that had just been wiped by the handkerchief so his next inhale filled his nostrils with that smell. He ran out of the room.

Ning Shu curled her lips as she threw the handkerchief into the teacup before lifting the tea supplies and leaving.

When she got back to the room, Yue Lan immediately came over to ask, “Miss, did he trouble you?”

“He didn’t. With how capable and talented your miss is, how could he possibly find any faults?” said Ning Shu as she sat down and crossed her legs.

Yue Lan then said with a tone of heartache, “Miss is the noble daughter of the prime minister and should have lived a luxurious and pampered life, but now you actually need to serve someone. Miss ah, my pitiful miss ah.”

“Enough, stop wailing, your miss is doing perfectly fine,” said Ning Shu, annoyed.

Yue Lan immediately shut up but continued sobbing sadly.

Although Ning Shu had successfully disgusted Qi Sheng, Qi Sheng still kept her as his personal maid. Even though Ning Shu always messed up in doing everything and looked ugly as heck, he was determined to keep her as his personal maid.

Even when Ning Shu’s snot flew into the food while she was serving him dinner, or when she strode straight in while he was bathing to add a bucket of boiling water that scalded him to the point he ran around the room naked…

In addition, Ning Shu always carried the smell of strong perfume mixed with the stink of socks. This was the part about her that disgusted Qi Sheng the most.

However, he endured it all. Ning Shu couldn’t help but sigh in admiration. The attraction between the male and female leads truly couldn’t be stopped.

“What exactly is that smell around you?” Qi Sheng finally brought it up.

Ning Shu widened her densely lined eyes and said excitedly, “This is osmanthus perfume. This servant wears perfumed clothing and uses handkerchiefs with the same scent everyday. Young Master, try smelling it, isn’t the smell delightful?”

As Ning Shu spoke, she pressed her handkerchief up against his face. Qi Sheng hastily turned his head away and said with furrowed brows, “In reality, you already smell nice naturally. There’s no need to use perfume like this, it ruins your natural and fresh scent.”

Ning Shu: (⊙ｏ⊙)

Wow, look how good he was at talking! As expected of an unscrupulous businessman. It was clear that he just couldn’t stand this smell anymore, but he was pulling up something about a fresh natural scent. His way with words was exactly what managed to fool the original host. His outer appearance was perfectly gentle and elegant, which kept his despicable nature hidden.
